Out of all the videos I have watched, this has got me the closest. I have actually successfully rolled my r's a few times when I first started, but haven't done it in awhile, but I will keep trying. Great video.
A speech teacher taught me to trill the r by doing an exercise over and over for a few days repeating nu-du-te-la(almost like nutella but with the added du sound). After practising again and again, the trill came...
I learned how to roll my r’s from Elyssa not Alyssa’s video using the word corre (Similar to Elyssa’s italian word vorrei) and it worked, You just need to practice. It was the only thing that did work. I’m glad you’re teaching others this method too.
I kinda envy English and Spanish native speakers because they can use their own language among hundreds of millions of other people on half of the world and use tons of resources for learning. Us others who speak languages that only a few millions of people speak its something else. Even learning lets say Spanish I have to use sources in English which is not my native language either. Like this video. So English and Spanish speakers dont complain and learn :)
This is the closest I've ever gotten! I have social anxiety, however I've been promised a treat at a health school if I talk to a girl who I like (not romantically). Her name is Marena (but the r is rolled). I'm still learning and my 'R' rolling still sounds a bit like a sloppy 'L', however sometimes I do get it and I think that and practising is what matters most! Thank you so much for this video.
Hi Paulísimaa, ii saludos desde malasia !! He estado en México por más de cuatro años pero nunca pude pronunciar ''rr'' hasta veo tu vídeo...sirve mucho, gracias Pau, espero que produzcas más video adelante XD
@@PaulisimaSpringSpanish It has actually been quite a straining time lately. With the winter storm Texas just went through. It has been very hectic at work (I work in a Plumbing department at a HomeDepot), but I got lucky that none of my pipes at home broke, and that my schedule gave me a few days off in a row to decompress. 😅 On the Spanish learning front, it's going okay I'm still slow, but I'm being able to understand more and more. Saying "Better butter" has been helpful too. Small progress, is still progress. ¿Cómo estás guapa? 😘
@@PaulisimaSpringSpanish Thank you. I'm happy to hear that you are well too. My Spanish attempt: (De nada. Estoy feliz de saber que tú estás haciendo bien también.) 😬So, how did I do?
Mi leccion mas importante! Estaba mi primero de spring spanish, y todavía practico con tus instrucciones cada dia en mi carro :) Gracias por todo Maestra Paulisima :)
Hola Paulisima, I am one of those American Lations who learned Espanol de mi familia. Inglish became dominant as grew up. A couple years ago I decided I want to master the Idioma. El RR es muy dificil para mi. i like you suggestions but would like more suggestions if you have any? Gracias
Your style is so vibrrrrant and irrrrrestible, and you're a grrreat teacher. Love this video. Will help so many people - like myself. Thank you! And you look a bit Asian. Interrresting.
@@sarah_b751 meh, not much ahah a little but tho, but I only practice in the car while going at work. I dont speak much spanish so my prononciation doesnt get better yet
El tema de la letra "r" sí que debe ser difícil para angloparlantes y asiáticos sobre todo ... refiriéndome a personas que sólo hablan su idioma materno. No sé si sea impresión mía o sea cierto pero, he notado que algunas personas que hablan idiomas como el ruso llegan a hablar y pronunciar muy bien el español ... ¿Será que ese idioma tiene sonidos similares al nuestro? ¿Gramática similar? ¿O simplemente en esa zona la gente tiene una formación académica que le facilita el aprendizaje de nuevas lenguas? Como siempre me gustó mucho el video
@Gabriel Batt Te creo. Hace años conocí brasileños que pronunciaban muy bien el español ... Sólo se nota una diferencia de acento pero eso no es problema. Escribes muy bien en español también. Saludos

I think it's both. Our education in America is definitely sub-par compared to other countries, and American English usually use soft t's (which ends up sounding like d's), as opposed to British English where there are more precise pronunciations with harder t's.
These tips are wonderful. In addition to these I have spent a fair amount of time viewing Spanish speakers and the use of their lips when speaking and I find their use is much more dramatic/exagerated than a typical english native speaker. This has helped greatly in trying to improve my pronunciation.
Even with the word broken into syllables, about 10% of the time my rr does trill but then it feels like my voice cuts out and the word ends there. The word I'm trying to say doesn't roll off the tongue but just shuts it down.
Pronunciation of the Spanish “r” or “r” is not difficult but sometimes I may forget to pronounce it properly. For me there is another sound in Spanish that gives me more problems and that is the pronunciation of the letter “v”. It should never ever sound like English “v” yet I hear that sound from native speakers a lot. Sometimes I forget or don’t think about it so I am sometimes a little unsure of myself. One of my first Spanish teachers in junior college told about a student she had had named “Vicente” who insisted that his named should be spelled “Bicente”.
Well, after some years of exercise I can vibrate the tip of my tongue... In the back, in the front, accompanied with a high-pitched scream in the throat is the newest trick! (That sounds like a sicko bird.) But, I still can't do it inside a word. It's as if I would try to whistle during spraking. Just impossible. You can speak, stop, whistle, stop, continue speaking. It's the same with my "rr-thrills".
I can make the trill sound independently, but I have a hard time saying it in words. Example, I can't say perro correctly for the life of me and I've been trying for like a week every day. I can say it if I break it down to syllables, but putting the two syllables together sounds ridiculous like I'm forcing air out too hard on the R sound. Any tips?
How come I can do it with other words like "rico" "carro" and "rato", but not with "risa"? The only way I can make the "rr" sound with "risa" is if I make it sound like I'm saying "grisa"???
I believe this might be because risa starts with the RR sound and that's harder to achieve, when the RR is beitween is like having pronunciation clutches hehe )This is how I imagine it) Try whispering a brief vowel sound like "a" before the word "risa... For example you could say "a-risa" and use the trick of doubling the sof R sound... you'd say something like "ar-ri-sa" and slowly move away from needing to add a vowel sound as a clutch
I am born and raised in Scotland . We rrrrrrrrooooollllll. our R’s like crazy ! Ask an Engliman to say “ Bring me some fresh brown bread “ .... This is what they would say “ Bwing me some bwown bwed “ .
Thank you for this lesson! I feel like I can roll my Rs okay... Until I'm actually trying to put together a sentence, and then they just disappear. 😑 Maybe my tongue is too tense. More practicing, I guess.
I'm a little confused about how to pronounce 'ter.' Is it just the American tt or d sound, as in 'ted?" It sounds like there's something more to it than that when I listen to you speak it.
I can relate to this. If you visit a Spanish speaking country or befriend somebody whose English level is comparable to your Spanish level, than this fear will probably vanish. Sometimes people who were raised bilingually can be impatient with new learners because they may not have the experience of learning a language as an adult.
Como italiana no tengo problemas en pronunciar la "r" española, quizás nos cuesta más the english rolling "r". Personalmente me cuesta más pronunciar la "r" francesa, en algunas palabras, mientras puedo hacerlo más fácilmente en alemán😂😂😂😂 Por cierto, Paulísima... me he enamorado de Manuel 😍😍😍 ¡Que guapo! ❤❤❤

Rhotacism - meaning you can't roll your r's. The word starts with an R....... language is cruel hahah
F
but is there a cure?

Omg, that is hilarious!

Where were you 10 years ago? Great trick. I finally got it by practicing a kid's motorboat sound. Your trick is better.
This video is amazing, you're such a good teacher!! This is was very helpful, I'm watching this video over and over.😊🎉
I've been blowing chunks on those R's :) Some R's are easier but the word bailar has got me.
Eres tan amable como Ana de butterfly Spanish. Me gustan las dos.He aprendido mucho cuando las profesoras hablan en ingles para enseñarnos.

I’ll keep practicing but thank you!
I figure there is a english speaking country that should be pretty good learning how to roll the rs as is pretty much in their accent. The scottish.
Yes...I believe that is true and easy for scotish people
There are 3 r’s in my name, so I have had to practice a lot, lol.
oof

This lesson is already helping. I can do the “Rrrrrrrrrrr” with the back of my throat, but the tongue is going to take some practice
Scotland also trill sound too
Wow that’s amazing I just managed to roll my r a tiny bit while watching😮
In Italian, we like to roll our R's when we say the word Ferrari lol. Good video.
Thank you
I think that many years ago, the upper class in the UK rolled their 'R's quite a lot. It is seen as an affectation now.
Lo que digo para practicar mis "rr":
Erre con Erre cigarros,
Erre con Erre barril,
Rápido corren los carros,
Cargados de azúcar al ferrocarril
You are Wild - - What an intro !!!!! 👏❣️
In Ethiopian (geez)alphabet we have also "ar" sound
Re,Ru,Ri,Ra,Rie,Re'e,Ro
Thanks
me muero de risa😂 "you know, any time you might want to express pleasure.. wink wink"😂😂
Thank you so much! ❤️🙏🏽
i can do a flapped r but have trouble if there is another on shortly after. E.g. reparar.. How do I train my tongue to do this rapidly
I can do rrrrr but I cant put it in a sentence and I cant do soft r xD I'll keep practicing I guess, thanks for tips ^^
Same here! Did it get any better for you?
@@sarah_b751 meh, not much ahah a little but tho, but I only practice in the car while going at work. I dont speak much spanish so my prononciation doesnt get better yet
I can’t tell for sure if I’m doing it or if I’m just gargling spit 🤣 Do you also have trouble rolling rr’s when your mouth is dry?
When I'm thirsty or my mouth is dry, I can barely do the single r sound. Glad to hear someone else has the same issue!

When I try to make the soft r sound it sounds a lot like and at the end. What should I do differently
It sounds a lot like a d is what I meant to say
@@numy5589
Just use the American TT as a reference.
I can't even do the warm up "brrrr" sound :( My lips just aren't floppy enough.
Could you please tell me the name of the classic Mexican rock song?

I’m the same. I can’t find any tutorials that help me for this. If you find something please reply 🙏
if you can RRR independently, try adding a vowel sound at the end of it, in Spanish we would practice: RRA, RRE, RRI, RRO and RRU
9:45 I see what you did there
With words like cachorro, a chorros, etc., I get my doble ere quite well.
I’ve done this a million times and I just get “quedrico” - I’ve been trying to roll my r’s for years and this is so frustrating!
Same problem for me. Don't know how those tricks can work so easily on others. I won't speak Spanish anymore until I get the sound!!
How come I can do it with other words like "rico" "carro" and "rato", but not with "risa"? The only way I can make the "rr" sound with "risa" is if I make it sound like I'm saying "grisa"???

Your tongue will develop enough muscle memory to get it RRRRRight all the time :D you'll see you just need time
I'm a little confused about how to pronounce 'ter.' Is it just the American tt or d sound, as in 'ted?" It sounds like there's something more to it than that when I listen to you speak it.
I can roll the rs but I get tongue tied when I say a word that starts with R
Try adding a vowel sound before it.. and then slowly eliminate it
Impossible, still can't do it😢

Me too. Practicing is not enough. You have to practice properly.
Easy letra for me .
I dont even know why RUclips is showing me this
la locura de esto BECAUSE RR sounds different in different Spanish countries and regions.
Not enough explanation for getting the tongue to flap
